    I was hesitant due to the 3.5 stars. The food was sooooo good and the service was great. I would recommend this to anyone looking for good BBQ.

    You can smell the smoke when you drive up. You are greeted immediately and they start making your plate. The pulled pork, brisket, and ribs are just delicious. Their beans are as incredible as their sauces. Lors of seating inside and out on their patio. Always clean and orderly. Their I sweet tea goes so well with their BBQ.

    This isn't my first time here and I'm just extremely disappointed in how my food looks and taste . This is $24 worth of food btw . Which I can respect for a bbq place but for the quality you're getting and for how much it is , this is such bare minimum crap . I feel like this place is a hit or miss and today was insanely a miss . The brisket was so dry and unseasoned . And the sausage might as well have been left to go stale out in the open . Poor excuse for an establishment

    UPDATE: This place seems to be going down hill right before our eyes. The pulled pork, already dried out from being shredded into sandpaper, now seems to lack any smoke flavor at all. This is a disturbing development. Previously their shredded meat at least had some barbecue flavor but now it doesn't even have that. Does anyone know a good pitmaster looking for work? This place needs help. -- SUMMARY: Pretty good, but with some room for improvement. GOOD: Overall great barbecue across the menu. All the meat is flavorful and nicely smoked. Service is friendly. Sides are great. We enjoyed the ribs, pulled pork, and brisket. Sides of okra, slaw, and corn were also good. Everyone who works there is nice, and I can see why this is a favorite lunch spot. MEH: My only real criticism is how the brisket is served. They smoke this wonderful meat, but then shred it to a fine pulp. Would taste so much better sliced. The character of a good brisket comes from the slowly rendered connective tissue, and this is lost when the finished product is finely shredded. However, I will say that unlike other places that make this mistake, Bird Dog somehow maintains the brisket flavor and moisture even through shredding. OVERALL: I really like this place, and it was a nice discovery on moving to Fountain. I will be back to try the rest of the menu. I'll update this review further once I try the chicken, sausage, and other menu items.

    Plenty of indoor seating

    I've heard lots of good things about this spot and finally hit it up. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised - it was delish. We ordered the shotgun spud, pulled pork sandwich and brisket sandwich. What made it so dang good was their sauce! Sides are pretty average, but let's be real, you're not there for the sides! Service was quick, staff was friendly and prices are average for a BBQ place. Highly recommend if you're on this side of town.

    Very good American food the place reminds me of my pa's old restaurant back in Lincoln Nebraska.

    Got super pricey a few years ago and nothing about the food had changed. I no longer eat meat but buying it for my kids was a gut punch.

    The food is amazing. Some of the best BBQ I have had out here in Colorado Springs. The amount you get is so feeling as well.

    I just wanted to leave a review for Lilly at Rookies Bar because she truly deserves the…read morerecognition. Lilly is hands down one of the best server I've experienced. She's incredibly knowledgeable about the drink menu and always knows exactly what to recommend based on what you're in the mood for. Whether you like something sweet, strong, smooth, or unique, she nails it every time. What really stands out is how attentive and friendly she is. She makes everyone feel welcome and takes the time to explain different options without making you feel rushed. Her drink recommendations have never disappointed -- you can tell she genuinely cares about giving customers a great experience. If you're at Rookies Bar and not sure what to order, ask for Lilly. You won't regret

My husband ordered the BBQ sandwich with coleslaw, which was incredibly tasty. One thing worth noting: my $15 grilled cheese entrée was mixed up with my daughter's $6 kids grilled cheese meal, and honestly, there's no noticeable size difference between the two. For the price, I would've expected more than two slices of cheese. The tomato bisque soup came highly recommended, but I found it to be pretty bland. The service could've been a bit warmer, but overall it's a casual, sports-bar vibe with a ton of TVs, which is great if you're catching a game
